Ancoats is a happening neighbourhood known for its eclectic food and drink scene. Scandinavian eateries, Japanese teahouses and Mexican restaurants, to name a few, sit alongside craft breweries and speakeasy-style bars. The 'peeps'—brass peepholes on various buildings—give a glimpse of the machinery and spaces of old Ancoats, once a gritty textile district. Former church Hallé St Peter’s now hosts classical concerts
